Rates & Pricing
Each project is different, so rates will depend on the quality of the source material, the type of service we agree on, and the scope of the project. Before I begin work, I’ll provide an estimate based on a sample you provide and the information you share during our initial consultation about your goals and expectations.
Fees may be hourly or charged on a word count or per project basis depending on length and complexity of content.
Short documents are welcome; minimum fees will apply. Sample edits, if applicable, will not be conducted on short documents.
